Description

I think a splashscreen is quite common in any hybrid apps these days. I would like electron-vue to have optional splashscreen pre-integration through vue init.

Research direction
The issue requests an optional splash screen for the electron vue boilerplate, but lacks specific requirements (e.g., when to show, duration, design). Start by reviewing Electron's BrowserWindow and how it interacts with Vue's lifecycle. Look at existing splash screen implementations in other Electron projects for reference. Since the repo uses vue cli, investigate how to add the splash screen as a template option via Vue init. Check the repository's documentation and any linked issues/PRs for further context.
